Hello everyone well you might have guest at what this blog might be about already. I know whenever I hear this quote from yoda I always thought how is there no try? I thought don't we always say we try new things, or try to make our lives better, or try to make the community you live in better, we try our hardest, we will try harder next time.
Then I realized what the word try might come across as. When you say you will try something there is instantly an excuse we can put there for when we did not try something. You either did try it out or you did not. Emphases Do. Or do not. Now I have never looked so deeply into a star wars quote before, but I started to think of this quote after our Saturday meeting.
Now it turns out we can try out millions of different ideas and experiences, but only do some that we follow through with. I am trying to lose weight but have I lost any weight yet, no I have not, so currently I am in the do not stage right now. If I want to lose weight I just can't say I am trying to lose weight I have to actively do lose weight. I have to get the mind set, the diet, and exercise if I want any chance at losing weight.
Now all I need to do is move myself over from the do not list. Which in all honesty scares me a little. I want to, I will lose weight.
This next bit here I am about to write is just for me. so you don't need to read it, since it might sound repetitive and just literary me talking to myself.
I will lose wight, I will eat healthier by buying my own grocery's and making healthy meals. I will go to kung fu on Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. I will do my push ups and sit ups everyday, I will go to the gym on Fridays. I will lose weight because I don't like being big anymore. I will get to wear more different types of clothes. I will build my confidence in myself. I will be happy. I will become a do and no longer be a do not, or try. I will stop being so lazy and stop procrastinating. (I am legit happy that I knew how to spell the word procrastinating, without spellcheck. did not know I knew how. if anyone read this) I will become a better person and a better friend. I will record my numbers and acts of kindness.

"Do or do not. There is no try." This is all about commitment. Commit to your dreams by implementing a plan to achieve them. Don't worry about Plan B until you need it. Commit to Plan A.
